Time of Reading 308-9 Essex Bldg., 4:45 to 5:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Norfolk, Virginia.

1. GC: You will have before you the Health Home Remedies Corp., and the activities of its Manager, Thomas B. House, Jr., present in this room, in making the Animated Ash. You will advise if either of the samples which he holds in his hand, marked #1 and #2, is correct. If so, which one? If not, what changes? You will advise him regarding the manufacture of this Ash and answer questions regarding same.

2. EC: Yes, we have the activities of Thomas B. House as related to the Health Home Remedies Corporation, and the manufacture of Animated Ash.

3. Now, in considering these products - and the intent and purpose that has first been given - as will be seen from a study and an analysis of that which has been the activity in the preparation - this preparation is not that as was originally given for Carbon Ash. [See 3857-2, 3/22/28, and subsequent questionings by Mr. [165]?] [Also see previous references in [1800] series.]

4. Now, as for the Animated Ash - that is being asked concerning or considered here:

5. That burned between or in the most vacuum of the reed, or #1, is that which has more beneficial elements in same. This is the way, the manner then for the preparing of same; but will require that there be a great deal of precaution in the making of same in this manner.

6. Now as to the Animated Ash's usages:

7. This is to be taken mostly internally; or to be combined for local application for a mild character of condition as related to abrasions, boils, carbuncles, old sores or the like - or that as may be more proficient and farther-reaching, as for corns, bunions and callouses - combined with the preparation called Iodex. [See 1800-27 giving the formula for the combination, now to be called Anidex.]

1800-30 Page 2

8. The proportions for corns, bunions, callouses would be five (5) grains in an ounce of the compound Iodex.

9. For carbuncles, old sores, abrasions, cuts, burns or the like - two (2) grains to an ounce. Two grains of the Animated Ash (as prepared in the manner indicated in #1, you see) to an ounce of the Iodex.

10. To be taken internally for fevers - as pertaining to typhus, intermittent, tic or the like, any of these - we find most of these would respond in most cases; where there is a tubercular condition, inflammation of the stomach, inflammation of the lungs, inflammation of the bones. In such cases there would be taken internally one-eighth (1/8) grain of the Animated Ash, but in varied conditions the Violet Ray - or Ultra-Violet Ray would be applied to produce the reaction in the system.

11. Now, as for Carbon Ash:

12. This is a different product. This is to be burned with one a cored carbon, one a solid; and burned in an eighty percent (80%) vacuum; only the white Ash. This would be more expensive, of course; should sell for at least five to ten dollars ($5 to $10) a grain when it is sold, or when it is prepared. This is for internal conditions such as cancer, or conditions of the stomach where there are ulcerations or cancerous conditions. We will find that such conditions, if taken in time, will find the closest response through such properties. Cancer of the uterus or of the womb - these conditions will be found to respond to the Carbon Ash. But this will require, to be sure, long, long burning - and that which adheres to the glass is that which is to be saved; not the scrapings of the carbon but the actual ASH of same, which is then carrying in same those properties that are effective not only as a radial activity from electrical forces but as the higher vibration that is destructive to conditions that are of the nature such as in cancerous conditions.

13. The Animated Ash, then, has the larger activity; though the Carbon Ash - and that which may be combined from same - may eventually, with research, prove the greater boon to humanity.

14. Ready for questions.

15. (Q) Can I make Carbon Ash with the machine I am using now? (A) This should be a little more of a vacuum. But remember it will require long, long burning! A day's burning may make a grain!

16. (Q) Is it necessary to use the globe in making the Animated Ash? to burn it? (A) This, so there is a container that will catch same, may

1800-30 Page 3

not be used - so long as it is burned between the arcs.

17. (Q) Please advise me what suggestions to make to Dr. Leonard [of N.Y., Iodex laboratories] of Manley & James for testing combinations of Iodex and Ash. (A) That it be used for those conditions as we have indicated, for which it may be used as a local application externally; used in the proportions as indicated for combining with the product Iodex; and this should be then combined or used by those that manufacture or make same, for those things indicated - and named by them!

18. (Q) Does pulverizing the Animated Ash cause it to lose any of its value? (A) Only in dampness does it lose its value. Hence as soon as it is prepared it should be put in capsules and sealed.

19. (Q) Is it necessary to sift through a screen? (A) Just so that it is burned properly, not necessary. The activity is this: In the cells of bamboo, combined in the oxygens and elements that are destroyed in the vacuum, there is that as becomes helpful to treating of conditions where there is the need for the loosening of oxygen - animated by the activity of the electronic energies upon the atomic structures of same - and hence becomes beneficial throughout.

20. We are through for the present. Copy to Thomas B. House " " Ass'n file Copied 2/23/53 for Dr. Frank Woidich [Francis DeSales Woidich, M.D.]
